Serving Green Oaks, IL homeowners

Green Oaks incorporated in 1960 — renamed from the old Village of Oak Grove — as a deliberate buffer against dense development, zoned from the start for single-family homes on one-, two-, and five-acre wooded lots. The housing follows that story: custom homes on acreage from the village's 1960s–80s growth wave along St. Mary's and O'Plaine Roads, then later subdivisions like Saddle Hill (1980s), Reigate Woods, and Lake Somerset (1990s) near Route 137. Utilities shape remodels here: much of the village runs on private wells and septic, while a small village system supplies Lake Michigan water purchased from Waukegan — its service-line inventory shows zero lead lines. GS Construction plans kitchen and bathroom renovations around well capacity and septic health where that applies, and puts generous footprints to work with basement finishing, additions, and whole-home updates. The K-8 Oak Grove School (District 68) sits inside the village on O'Plaine Road, high schoolers head to Libertyville High School, and commuters reach I-94 in minutes or Metra's MD-N line in Libertyville.

Green Oaks permits & building codes for remodeling projects

The Village of Green Oaks issues its own building permits from Village Hall on O'Plaine Road, and its required-permit list reaches further than many owners expect: structural changes, decks and sheds, detached garages, fences, re-roofing, driveway replacement, and sprinkler systems all need one before work begins. Inspections are scheduled through the village's building line as each phase completes, and on the many well-and-septic properties a remodel that moves plumbing can add Lake County health-department review. GS Construction manages the entire permit path — application, village review, inspections, and final sign-off — on every Green Oaks project.

5 Stars

Patryk, Greg and their team were great to work with. They did our kids bathroom several years ago and we were so pleased with their work we used them again for our primary bathroom. They showed up when they were supposed to, answered calls/emails very timely, had an amazing work ethic and pride in their work. Patryk suggested adding a window that looks better than I could have imagined. They were accommodating to several tweaks to the project and absolutely wonderful. I LOVE my new bathroom. We wouldn't hesitate to use GS Construction again.
